[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Speed - and unless you do crazy things to your phone, you really shouldn't ever see any problems with it. Heck, I'm the dev, and I don't. :D

There will be a journaled version, though.
[Epic 4G Android Development] stir fry a lot:
Is it really that noticeable of an increase? Would 1.35ghz operate more like the current 1.2ghz or is the difference less pronounced than that?
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
As a dev, how long do you keep one setup? Arent you constantly changing the setup of your phone?
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
I change things often, yes, but I go for longer than a lot of people who see data corruption. My point was, though, that I do crazier things to my phone than most, and still don't see corruption.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I appreciate the insight.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bender beerman:
are u gonna start a new thread for the new release? it would be a lot nicer than looking thru 500+ pages to find pertinent info...
[Epic 4G Android Development] pjjohn73:
Just want to give a thanks for the ROM. Its been working well for me. Giving me a very good EPIC experience.

I must say I like the idea of having both a journal and no-journal option. I personally will stay with no-journal, but I have been wanting to put a custom ROM on my wife's Epic, but to be honest am hesitant of putting a no-journal ROM on it. So I think I will talk her into trying your journal version. So Thanks. (Just don't want to hear about it if she were to corrupt data, just not worth it!!)

Cheers

[Epic 4G Android Development] nimitz87:
I'm having the same problem with airplane mode. What's the fix? I tried reflashing multiple times as well as multiple wipes.
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
My best suggestion is to wipe your SD card and try again - but you might wish to wait until 1.1.0 is out (extremely soon). Following its install procedure may do what you need.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dcowboys2184:
Good thing I'm working right now .. Not going to sleep until some 1.1.0 is on my epic!
[Epic 4G Android Development] castro08:
When you say extremly soon you mean???? Jkjkjk
[Epic 4G Android Development] Shoulon:
I was just about to goto sleep! Not anymore. I'm waiting on the release! I just hope a new thread and page was aready pre-made for this coming release so once the upload is finished teres no posting wait =)
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
It will be well worth the wait :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
kOnane, do we need to partition SD card or anything while we are waiting?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Shoulon:
I can also agree 10x.. the ACS team are the only ones who tested, took their time and fiddled with things before releasing. No super early releases (teasers! Kidding) =)
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
1.1.0 has been released! Support for it starts below this post.
[Epic 4G Android Development] stir fry a lot:
FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] dcowboys2184:
Yesss ... At 68% dl'n will report bugs if any highly doubt it tho..

A Truly Epic Kneeling down and saying Thank-you K0nane. I love Syndicate and say thanks again for everything. =) (already half done downloading)

Edit: Minor cosmetic, maybe u can add a link to the new kernal in the Version changelog section. (when or if its posted yet)

WONDERFUL! Downloading/flashing now. I can't wait. You ACS guys (and gals?) are amazing.

OK such a noob question but uh what is journaling?
[Epic 4G Android Development] IMPuLSe EX:
Just in case wiki isn't being clear. Here is what the difference between journaling and no journaling.

scenario 1 w/ no journaling:

you surf the web, pull down image > data written to cache > save to disk

if your phone crash and reboot then you lost the image that's being pull down

scenario 1 w/ journaling:

you surf the web, pull down image > data written to disk as image loaded

if your phone crash and reboot then you have the image save as much as it was downloaded.

Final point: it's no big deal whether you have journaling or not.

scenario 2 w/ no journaling:

You work on a very important spreadsheet as you hit save > data written to cache > save to disk

if the software have recovery feature, and the phone crash before you hit save, then you lost all changes prior to the last saved because the temp file that the software use wasn't written to the disk.

scenario 2 w/ journaling:

You work on a very important spreadsheet as you hit save > data written to disk.

if the software have recovery feature, and the phone crash before you hit save, then you get to choose the recovery file which is the temp file that constantly being written to the disk.

The difference: hours of work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Shoulon:
Simple put, it makes data corruption go away. However it will degrade overall Phone life span. (alot I assume, it makes phone write/read like 2x more)

I wish I could skip my English class tonight, but I got an essay due. :(

i wish their was something that could be done to wifi tether it destroys your battery....otherwise this rom is great ill probably be tweaking it for my likings when i get home today because it still has a lot of apps i dont use.

good to see this rom back in action.
[Epic 4G Android Development] chris41g:
The adblocking breaks words with friends.. anyway to fix it? Or disable it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Thanks for your support! Unfortunately, Wireless Tether is a battery suck by its very nature. It's not the app's fault - what you're doing is activating both the 3G and wifi radios, at the same time, both sending and receiving data. On top of that as battery suck, background processes have to perform the low-level routing functions.

If you don't like the drain, plug in - or try Wired Tether. :)

See previous pages of the thread.

As a die hard rfs user I think you have convince me to go ext4 based on this rom. This reminds me of the Winmo days when we had to delete this Service agent off of our device. I'm a big time conspiricist~ "I know I didn't spell that right lol". So I want to decrease the chance of big brother watching me. Ill tr to flash when I get home from work late tonight.

I hate "Top Flight Security Mods"
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Phentermine (prescribed! Do not abuse prescription drugs folks!) and NOS Sugar-Free (abuse the fack out of this - excellent stuff). ;)

You're welcome! Was it specifically Carrier IQ on that device? Which one was it, and from which carrier? The more information we have on this, the better. If it was Carrier IQ, this'll be the first I've heard of it on other platforms.

EDIT: For affected Email.apk users, while we investigate, try K9 Mail. It's superior in almost every way - and more secure, as well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BeerChameleon:
i like nos too, but not sugar free, i also like monster nitrous,rockstar juiced fruit punch as well as red bull and other very strong energy drinks!! :D

BTW Check my post again, i added a youtube link to something you might also do :D

you sir have a rock solid rom! i love it! i am going to test out the gps later today, but one question where do i get the wall paper that comes with the rom, it seems i changed the wall paper but can't go back to the original black background :(

gps WORKS GREAT!
[Epic 4G Android Development] diego1985:
I was on At&t and I had the i637 jack. And it appeard to be an app called mobile security or something. But it killed battery life. I will have to look it up it was something with an IQ service data agent or something always trying to connect to a server.

I hate "Top Flight Security Mods"
[Epic 4G Android Development] BeerChameleon:
Gotcha, well when you get a chance.. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
It's default_wallpaper in framework-res.apk/drawable-hdpi. EDIT: You can open .apks with anything that opens zips - open manually or rename to .zip. It's also fairly easy to find on Google Image Search - try '960x800 wallpaper'

I don't think that's related - AT&T doesn't use Carrier IQ.
[Epic 4G Android Development] diego1985:
update: yeah it was called SOTI mobile control device agent and jack users had to remove it for better battery.

I don't think that's related - AT&T doesn't use Carrier IQ.[/QUOTE]

Mobile Control Device Agent... now if that's not an Orwellian name.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tmspyder:
I've never experienced the data corruption bug myself. But alot of others have reported it.

IMO journaling will slow the performance a tad... but worth it for some to gain peace of mind.
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Essentially. You sacrifice performance for peace of mind.

You'll only see data corruption if you do crazy things with your phone like pull your battery out randomly or spontaneously reboot your device. If you've suffered data corruption or the WiFi Tether reboots in the past, go journaling. If not, no need.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Shoulon:
Could someone post or upload a link to the background that comes with Syndicate? (v1.0.2) I want the image =)
[Epic 4G Android Development] xeks:
Thanks for the update to 1.1.0!
[Epic 4G Android Development] dcowboys2184:
This browser is omg bomb.com..... So far so good
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
It should be in 1.1.0 as well. You can also get it here.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tcooper85:
Hey i love your rom. I just switched over from bonsai, top notch on your guyses parts. I will be donating as soon as i have money. Thanks again.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tmspyder:
Top notch as expected :)

Will emotionless beast 1.6 play nice with the ec05 build?
[Epic 4G Android Development] stir fry a lot:
Just my luck, my phone isn't being recognized by my Mac or PC and it has randomly soft rebotted twice. Would this lead to data corruption?
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Wait a bit - Mystery will be updating it shortly.

It shouldn't, but could. Can you access it in download mode? Sounds like a bad flash.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tmspyder:
Will do. thanks

I booted to CWM and selected mount USB storage and got a Unable to open ums lunfile message. I formatted my card (via CWM) a couple days ago but everything has been working fine otherwise.
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
That's normal, and can't really be fixed. You have to put things on your SD card outside of USB.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
If I am hanging at Samsung screen should I download again?
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Redownload, format your SD card, and reflash.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Damn that was quick. Thanks kOnane
[Epic 4G Android Development] kalel_293:
downloading! thanx for the update!
[Epic 4G Android Development] stir fry a lot:
That's normal of a bad flash? I'm not following. I just powered off my phone and used a card reader to load it on. Once I flash might it resolve this issue? I guess there's only one way to see..
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
You will never be able to access USB inside CWM is what I'm saying.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tcooper85:
Just a quick question. The new browser? is it the default one? or did u add one?
[Epic 4G Android Development] stir fry a lot:
So I got it onto my card but in CWM I'm choosing to install zip from sdcard but its saying that it can't mount. Should I format it again?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Blankrubber:
Very confused as to what just happened. I ODINd the EC5 modem and installed the rom .zip in CWM. After flashing, CWM started doing funky things and decided it couldn't mount cache. Something about cache/log not found. I wiped everything 3x, including data, and reflashed rom. Rom finally flashed and I got the blue, random text showing the kernel was flashed. When I reboot it gets stuck at the samsung screen.

I'll try reflashing the rom and if that doesn't work I guess I have to ODIN back to factory, yeah?
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Yes - if you continue to have issues, Odin to EB13, Odin to the EC05 modem, put the ROM on your SD card, install CWM3, wipe data, and flash the ROM.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Blankrubber:
Update: I get this message in CWM now...

Checking for ext4 partitions...

Checking /system...

/system may be rfs. Checking...

Checking /data...

/data may be rs. Checking...

Checking /cache...

/cache may be rfs. Checking...

Done!

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

How did my file system get changed to rfs??
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
If you used Odin with a full ROM - or didn't uncheck "repartition" on the left side (you must do that!), that's how.
[Epic 4G Android Development] stir fry a lot:
I got it to recognize my card somehow. Thanks k0nane!
[Epic 4G Android Development] tcooper85:
Anyword on that browser question?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Blankrubber:
"Repartition" was definitely unchecked. The only thing that should be checked is "F. Reset time," right? I'm taking your advice from the last post, btw. Thank, k0.
[Epic 4G Android Development] air2k57:
Love the rom so far. Stock it felt a little choppy with scrolling and all that. Downloaded set CPU and set Max frequency to 1.3ghz, works great. Now, should I use on demand scaling or concervative? Tried concervative and phone hung pretty bad for few seconds there. Ondemand seems to work good. Would that really effect my battery life for the worse?
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
It's the stock Android browser - actually a modified CM6 version. You'll love it.

No, only 'auto reboot'.

On Demand is recommended. You may see less battery life than you like with 1.3ghz - if you do, try 1.2ghz. 1.0ghz (set by default) and below are all undervolted, too!
[Epic 4G Android Development] air2k57:


Sweet, thank you. Your roms have always been amazing compared tl others, appreciate the work. always faster, always better battery life, and for some reason 3g data is way better as my latency is always way lower with this rom. So far 1.1.0 is pretty awesome. Hmm, I may just end up trying either 1.0ghz or 1.2, but 1.3 makes me feel so good lol.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tcooper85:
Thank you very much..Everything is great so far. Just waiting for that Emotionless beast update so i can flash the theme :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] epic4GEE:
Flashed 1.1.0 straight over midnight5, with no wipe. I must say that was a very nice and painless install, well done kOnane.

Things are running good so far and yes I already love the improved browser. Now its time to see how well my epic handles 1.3 jigga hurtz........thanks kOnane and team ACS.....keep it up!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] air2k57:
My only issue is with gingerbread launcher. The 3d launcher feels laggy, mostly when phone is idle. When it syncs, it works good. I'm assuming its due to frequency being way low? Would changing the minimum frequency fix it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
It could - but it's not worth it, really. Other, more-optimized launchers will run better and have the same features.
[Epic 4G Android Development] air2k57:
Will try something else in the morning then :-) . You said that 1.0ghz and below are undervolted. Does that mean that having Max frequency at 1.0 vs 1.2 will greatly improve battery life?
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Correct. It's at 1.0ghz by default, too.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Blankrubber:
Now I'm REALLY confused. I did this and the same thing happened in CWM... What could be the issue? It booted to stock fine until I flashed the rom. I redownloaded the rom in case that was the problem but it apparently wasn't. Any ideas? I've tried the process about three times already, and it hasn't worked once. I even flashed 1.02 before 1.1 and 1.02 had a crazy sprint/default boot logo and auto rebooted every time it loaded up.

I get stuck at the samsung screen with the journal version, downloaded 3 times adn flashed 3 times.

Had no problems with the standard version, flashed and booted.

Thanks ACS!!!!!

would love the journal version for piece of mind, guess my phone doesn't like it
[Epic 4G Android Development] Blankrubber:
Hmm, I've been having the same issues with the fully loaded journal version as well. I'll try a different version next.
[Epic 4G Android Development] volkly:
Yeah i had the same issues as you have been posting, maybe the zip for the journaled standard and fully loaded is corrupted. Standard with no journaling works fine with me, haven't tried fully loaded.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Blankrubber:
I am trying fully loaded-nojournal. I'll report on how it works.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Xaeonis:
Just locked up on samsung screen using fully loaded journal. Will report back with non-journaled version here in a few.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Blankrubber:
It's all a ploy to keep us using non-journaled versions ;-).
[Epic 4G Android Development] Blankrubber:
Were you flashing the fully loaded journal version or the standard journal version?
[Epic 4G Android Development] volkly:
LOL, i don't think ACS would do that, tho i have tried all 4 roms, both journaled versions don;t boot for me, and both non-journaled versions booted for me. Im sure ACS would look into it and hopefully those who wanted it like I do will be able to have it =)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Xaeonis:
Youre telling me! And I SHOULD be sleeping because I got class in a few hours - but **** syndicate for releasing this, KNOWING FULL WELL, that I wont stop til this is updated!

Hahaha!! Thanks for the quick release k0nane...this rom is awesome!

update: phone just booted past samsung screen using fully loaded NONjournaled.

Edit : Turns out the package did not backup any of my data - or it all got corrupted from the bad journaled roms that were posted. Either way, I dont have a current backup of apps and data, so Im pretty ****ed. :( not nice guys...
[Epic 4G Android Development] musclehead84:

Try this method, once we flashed the Jounal Version, we will have the checking ext format, deleted data, battery pull, and go back to CMW.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Xaeonis:
I usually keep a current backup, but lack of sleep and the like has kinda got to me tonight - and Ive trusted k0nane and the syndicate team to not screw me on the upgrades. Gone smoothly before, but this time I guess not.

I personally had a problem flashing the rom with journaling. I got a couple of recover.log errors and when I tried booting up no dice. Just stay on the samsung logo for over 10mins. I tried twice. Both times with no success. Each time made sure I formatted everything before doing the install. Luckily I backed everything up I reinstalled the 1.02 rom then restored my backup through clockworks now I'm back here writing this. I'm going to try the 1.1 standard now. I'll update my results later.
